It's the season of GIVING again! :)

I am usually pretty excited when Christmas is approaching. Christmas being such a beautiful holiday with such meaningful gesture and thought for your loved ones. It is a wonderful time when close relatives and friends gather together, catch up with lives and happenings, strengthen their relationships and present their blessings for the new year ahead. I will be far from home this Christmas but my heart remains with my loved ones in Singapore.

I vividly recall my stay in states last year, this time. Black Friday is something really HUGE in United States. Well, for the benefit of those who are not so familiar with Black Friday, it is the day after Thanksgiving day. Some people use this to make trips to see family members or friends who live in other areas or to go on vacation. Others use it to start shopping for the Christmas season.

There are two popular theories as to why the day after Thanksgiving Day is called Black Friday. One theory is that the wheels of vehicles in heavy traffic on the day after Thanksgiving Day left many black markings on the road surface, leading to the term Black Friday. The other theory is that the term Black Friday comes from an old way of recording business accounts. Losses were recorded in red ink and profits in black ink. Many businesses, particularly small businesses, started making profits prior to Christmas. Many hoped to start showing a profit, marked in black ink, on the day after Thanksgiving Day. Well, pretty interesting ya!

So, I would like to kickstart the shopping spree for Christmas by offering 20% discount for everything in Fleur Envy website. Enter "BLACKFRIDAY20" to enjoy this discount when you checkout and promotion will end this Sunday night.

Have an enjoyable, fun-filled Black Friday!
